you wouldn't think this from my post frequency lol, but I deal with situational mutism. I'm not shy, but sometimes I literally cannot speak. it's hard to make new friends when they think you don't actually like them because you can't talk 😅 #situationalmutism #selectivemutism

Part memoir, part guide, it offers insight not just for those with SM, but for the parents, teachers, counselors, and friends who walk beside them.

I think I have pretty good social skills but it may be "I have a system for my socks" kind of situation if you know what I mean. #selectiveMutism #NeuroAtypical

I have #SelectiveMutism which is an anxiety / communication disorder. People will say that this mostly affects children. What I personally think happens is that the disorder changes and mutates rather than goes away.

Holidays can be overwhelming for children with selective mutism. Planning ahead, easing into social settings, and offering lots of praise can help them feel more comfortable. Small steps lead to big progress. #SelectiveMutism #HolidaySupport

Selective Mutism isn’t defiance. It’s anxiety in survival mode.
But in public schools, these kids are too often failed—no AAC, no support, just labels like “defiant” and “noncompliant.”
We don’t punish silence. We support communication.

Kids with Selective Mutism may be chatty at home but quiet elsewhere. 💬 Speech therapy can gently support confidence with non-pressured strategies. Learn more in my newest blog article + video 👇

Often diagnosed in childhood, #SelectiveMutism can continue into adulthood if left untreated. Early recognition can make a lasting difference in helping children find their voice. tinyurl.com/9d9c4n43

💬 October is Selective Mutism Awareness Month 💙
Some children can talk at home but go silent at school — not from shyness, but anxiety. With patience & the right support, they can find their voice.

Verbal shutdown, temporary loss of speech. Some people might have selective/situational mutism. But still it’s not the same as being nonverbal. We should respect that and listen to every part of the spectrum.
